Description

A stunning visual history of sculpture from prehistory through modernity

This book presents an aesthetic of sculptural art, which has too often submitted to the rule of architecture and painting. Herbert Read emphasizes the essential and autonomous nature of sculpture-“Form in its full spatial completeness,” in the words of British sculptor Henry Moore. The Art of Sculpture provides historical support and theoretical rigor to this conception. Along the way, this incisive and wide-ranging book takes readers on a breathtaking tour of great works of sculpture from prehistoric times to the modern era.

About the Author

Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968) was renowned as a poet and a writer on the visual arts, literature, and education. His many books include A Concise History of Modern Painting, Art Now, Art and Society, and Icon and Idea.
